Piers Morgan ignored his TV bosses taking out his ear piece during a live rant on Good Morning Britain .

The outspoken 54-year-old had just finished a segment about Meghan Markle and the royal baby when he started sounded off about social media.

As the dad-of-four was about to launch into a rant about how studies saying Instagram and Facebook overstate their impact on teens, he said: "They are jabbering in my ear, telling me to get on with it... I am just going to take my ear piece out."

He took it out and put it on the desk, while pointing to research carried out by Oxford University about social media.

Piers said 'the world going nuts' after a segment about how social media is impacting the mental health of youngsters.

He continued his tirade by saying companies were being bullied into changing, citing Percy Pigs becoming vegan friendly and then went on to say that if Only Fools And Horses was to be pitched now it would never get passed for TV because of 'snowflakes'.
